50 Black-Owned Beauty Supply Stores You Should Know

52 Black-Owned Beauty Supply Stores You Should Know

For decades, the hair care industry in the Black community has been dominated by Asian entrepreneurs and larger corporations like Strength of Nature and L’Oréal. Both brands have had a strong hold on the “ethnic” beauty market especially after acquiring numerous brands from Motions to Softsheen-Carson. That is, until the natural hair movement gained momentum and brought about a wave of Black entrepreneurs looking to reclaim the Billion dollar industry. With African Americans purchasing nine times more (repeat: NINE TIMES MORE) beauty and grooming products than any other ethnic group, yet owning less than 1% of that market share, it’s only right that there is a major shift in ownership from hair care products to the beauty supply stores notoriously owned by Asians. In an effort to support the growing number of Black-Owned Beauty Supply stores, we’ve rounded up 50 that you should be supporting around the country. Don’t forget to click on each photo for more info and if you know of any others that should be added to the list, comment below.

When my partner and i separated last year i was struggling to cope on my own with 2 kids emotionally and financially. With the help of a small loan from charlse4elliotfunds005@outlook.com now i’m able to get back on my own two feet again with less stress and in a steady time manner, you can call them at +1 408-763-5928 Thank you once again for your kind service and helping hand.

I am actually trying to stop spending money in these Asian shops. I’ve come on here to look around and I’m trying to find a website, “Black Owned” that can supply my hair that I’m looking to purchase. Once again how unfortunate that I can’t find a website to order from. I’m not surprised at all! I read down this whole page and see other’s also asking for a on line store. How hard is that? I have looked up and down and typed in Google to see if any websites available to order. I see a few online but so few that they don’t have the hair, they are just wig shop, they don’t have any stock available. Again I’m not surprised at all.

Hi Shaiya, I am currently in the process of launching my online website coming very soon: cynthiaallenhairextensions.com. Only quality hair is what i’ll be selling to make you more beautiful.. Sew ins, frontals, closures , bundles and bundle deals wigs, clip ins, tape Ins, mink lashes, silk bonnet caps to name some of my awesome products. Here’s my email if you’ve like to keep in touch, callen1223@gmail.com.

Hell0 my name is Daniel and I’m starting a business in China exporting Hair directly to Black owned businesses and I’m looking for clients. I’m in direct contact with multiple factories that sell real and synthetic weave, wigs and other products. If you are trying to start a business or are currently operating a business and you want to buy in bulk direct from the factory please contact me.

Hello,
I am so proud of my people to step up and set the path for other entrepreneurs that would like to start their own black-owned beauty supply. I would like to know if any of the black-owned suppliers are willing to mentor me in getting into the business 909 521-4863 or riptecora@yahoo.com. Thank you to anyone that is willing to help me through this maze I have spent a lot of money on hair that is total garbage. Thanks. I live in southern California.

Hello my name is DeNan Williams, I would love to own a beauty supply store. I’ve graduated from collage with a business degree, and I’ve been doing hair for 29 years. I don’t know where to start please help?

Am so happy I got mine from Bruce. My blank ATM card can
withdraw $2,000 daily. I got it from Him last week and now I have
$14,000 for free. The blank ATM withdraws money from any ATM machines
and there is no name on it, it is not traceable and now i have money
for business and enough money for me and my family to live on .I am
really happy i met Bruce because i met two people before him and they
took my money not knowing that they were scams. But am happy now.
bruce sent the card through DHL and i got it in two days. Get your own
card from him now he is not like other scammer pretending to have the
ATM card,he is giving it out for free to help people even if it is
illegal but it helps a lot and no one ever gets caught. im grateful to
bruce because he changed my story all of a sudden . The card works in
all countries except, Mali and Nigeria. Bruce email address ismajorbruce100k.atmhacker@outlook.com

HI I WOULD LIKE TO OPEN BOTH AN ONLINE STORE AND A PHYSICAL STORE. COULD SOMEONE BE SO KIND AS TO TELL ME HOW TO OPEN UP A BEAUTY SUPPLY STORE AND WHERE TO GET SUPPLIES FROM? THIS WOULD BE A DREAM COME TRUE. PLEASE HELP.
THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS YOU.

All these black owned businesses YAAASSSSZZ! My friend Nadia Ruffin has the perfect app for us all to keep us connected wherever we may be in the country. It’s like yelp for black businesses Patronize. Please check it out so we can all stay connected

Thank you for saying this. We can open up but when it comes to sharing, networking and helping each other out: Please I can ask and ask but our kind just don’t want to help up lift and support one another. I’m looking on here now and don’t see answers but yet the “Black Owned Businesses”, want the support to keep open from there own. Ask them to sit down and take a minutes to help you out with just some information, please they will not. They say support one another but will they help you get up and open? I haven’t seen it yet. I’m on here because I’m tired of supporting the Asian owned businesses. I would like to support my own. I wish they felt the same way and would put how they got started but I know better. I’ve seen it and lived it. We can do so well out there but let someone ask how you did and can you give me the info you used to get started. Fall right on deaf ears!

Heads up. The black owned beauty supply store on Slauson between Angeles Vista Blvd and Overhill, that Jamaica owner is VERY racist against black ppl.
She too held a black lady that she thought stole a 99 cent eyeliner in her store shaking her down when she told me about that I said you can not do that you can go to prison for that I don’t give a damn that you’re from Jamaica you will go to prison here for kidnapping, said she found nothing in the lady also she calls black people dirt people and porch monkeys!!! this lady was my neighbor’s sister-in-law she does not like black people but yet she sells nothing but black products she talks bad about you when you leave she swears up and down everybody steals from her and if you go in there pay attention if it’s small items under $5 that you purchased she does not put that money in the register she keeps it and she does not report anything to the IRS do not go there.

Hi Noni,
Im in the process of trying to order products for a online store and a store front. Can you tell me where I can order supplies from? The distributor in my area is Korean and will not sell to me until I have a store opened. How can I open a store without product?? Anyway any information you can offer would be greatly appreciated.

Most of us won’t help each other out because we are afraid of someone doing just as well or better than us. Not realizing there’s enough fame and fortune for everyone. I pray someone will change that in every industry not just hair. Moving on. Good luck with your business dream. I hope someone, who has been in the business for sometime, leads you around the stumbling blocks they faced. They should be able to help you with the business plan previously mentioned. It’s not just something you whip together, it truly takes knowledge and understanding of the industry you are getting into, in order to know how you want your business to be ran. After all of that is said and done and you are successful, then I hope you return the favor and help someone else. Enjoy life and laugh a lot. Be covered in the grace of the Lord.

Thank you Niya for saying this. I just spoke about this as well on here. I find it so ridiculous that our own will not help you out to get up and going. I think it make absolutely know sense at all. I would only be to happy to help someone out when I’m sitting up on high and someone else wants to do the same thing. Why not help you out. I wish other’s felt the same way. What’s with the fear or why do you care if they starting flying also? I would hope to only be so happy for that person. I wish other’s felt the same way.

There is also one in Houston, TX called Ladybird’s Beauty Supply. She is located at 921 FM 1960 West Ste 104E Houston, TX 77090. Her phone number is 281-893-0577. Very polite and friendly and you will NOT be treated like a criminal. I do not go in Asian beauty supply stores anymore. Anything you want, if she doesn’t have it, she will order it for you.

PD&K on Holcomb Bridge Rd in Roswell, GA really need to step up their customer service. They were recommended to me by a client and I really wanted to support them. Three different people associated with this store disappointed me. That was almost two years ago, and I haven’t been back, nor have I recommended them.

My name is Shaleetha Williams I’m 37 I live in Columbia, SC and I want to open my own beauty supply store here. I’m reaching out to some African American business owners trying to get some advice and help with suppliers for my store. There are only two others black owned beauty supply stores in my city and I want to service my Nubian Queens in my area. Any information that you can provide to me will be greatly appreciated. I’m open to any and all advice about this business as other races have pretty much taken over this industry, but African Americans are the consumers. I’m very excited and ready to take this bull by the horns and open up my own shop. I’m very humble and have no pride to where I can’t ask for help along my journey to becoming a business owner! I like the sound of that. So, please feel free to contact me and share, guide, and direct my footsteps. I can be reached via phone at 803-318-1976, email-leethawilliams@hotmail.com, I’m also on Facebook under my name. Thanks in advance.

It is great to see all these wonderful Black – Owned Beauty Supply Stores……There was One in Lynchburg,Va. Was able to shop twice after that…..the shop was closed more than OPEN!!! Can’t buy from Black Owned if the doors aren’t open and nobody answers their telephones……..There are 5 Asian Beauty Supply Stores in Lynchburg,Va…..Two open for over 25yrs…..the others about 15-20 yrs……..All of these stores are bus line accessible, it’s hard to shop “at” if most shoppers can’t get to store. Hope the next person(s) that want to open shop here will do their homework. As you can see Beauty Supply Business here is big……………RuthAnn

You are right about the Asians having more Beauty Supplies than us, and at the stores I have been to they are not that nice. One Asian owned store actually moved directly across the street from LaMoor. I wonder why they did that.
